Adjt. Gen. Camp5s'l, formerly of this
city, is fulfilling an engagement 10 de-
liver twenty speeches in Oregon. Gen.
Campbell is Republican st. John is
lecturing in California, where they will
not in twenty five years be educated
sufficiently to submit an amendment.
He is prohibitionist.- Nationalist.
1t has been published all over the
state that Gen. Campbell's intimate re-
lations with Topeka girl is the cause
of his sojOurn in Oregon; that the mat
ter was brought before the Grand Jury
of Shawnee county. but he being out of
their jurisdiction nothing could be done
but hold the case over, and that he will
return as soon as the trouble blows
over. The Clay Center Times of two
weeks ago, in referring to the matter,
asked: ''Why is he there? How long
will he stay? Will be marry the girl?
Tell us all about it," st. John has
never yet been called upon to defend
his character, and when he speaks the
common people hear him gladly.-Man-

An exchange states some very peril
nent facts concerning Kansas in the
following: Kansas has passed through
siege Of Indian warfare, bordering
rufianism, drouth grasshoppers, cy-
clones and lightning rod agents, and
still prospers and increases in wealth
and population in spite of the war
waged against her by an army OF for
eign real estate agents. WhyP Be
cause she stands today far above her
sisters in natural wealth the richest
and most productive soil in the world;
because. whenever she exhibits her
products, she excites the wonder OF The
world, and the word Kansas is familiar
to every civilized language spoken; be-
cause her agriculture record presents
one unbroken chain of glorious sue
cesses and these are things that heI
caluminators cannot hide from the
world. The cyclones are running "ovei

the "Suniower'' State; the grasshoppel
has forgotten us; and the drouth-let
as see; we have lived in the state since
1850 and we don't remember but three
or four severe drouths-the rainfall
seems to increase with every succeeding
year. Well, gentle reader, our state is
barely out of her teens, has a popula-
ton of over a million, and also the best
free school system in Uncle Sans do

mentioned, and thousand more, are
the reasons why the intelligent emf

The feminine instinct which impels
every mother to regard her own chill
dren as little better than anybody
else's was well exemplified in recent
case in California. A rich widow had
determined to disinherit her daughter,
because of her elopement, but when
she heard that the groom's parents had
turned against the young couple, she
declared that her daughter was as good
as anybody, and then presented the
bride and groom with a home and a
generous supply of money. Perhaps
this incident may involve a pointer for
impecunious young men who elope with
the daughters of wealthy parents.

Nearly every Republican paper in
the land is suggesting the name of
some prominent Republican as a presi-
Dental candidate who might be able to
carry New York, and thsreby save the
surely dying party. If the principles of
the Republican party amount to any
thing, why can't any representative
Republican be elected? There are few
Republicans in Manhattan who are not
free to admit that Mr.. Blaine can never
be elected, but say someone else can
be-. While we are also satisfied that
Mr.. Blaine cannot be successful, it is
also very apparent that Mr.. Blaine is
the only man in the party who stands
the ghost of a chance.
It was an uprising of the people that
elected Grover Cleveland president, and
his administration has been so much
bsttsr than former Republican rule

The sale of the Chicago Times call
attention to the wreck of what was
once magnificent property. Ten years
ago the paper was a power in the West.
notwithstanding the license with which
it was edited. 1t was bold and fear
less in its policy, its editorials were
well written and incisive, and as a
dragnet Of news it was not surpassed
by the best metropolitan papers. After
Mr.. Story's mind became impaired it
steadily deteriorated, but not as much
as might have been expected, consider
ing the internal discussions in the
office. We trust that under its new
owners it will regain its former infiu-
ence and become a powerful aid in
spreading the principles of true De-
mocracy.

asked to what his Majesty Ind refef-

Prince Bismarck, which sufficiently
showed his hostility TO Russia. Prince
Bismarck at once declared that these
letters were forgerirs, manufactured
by Orleanist intrIgurrs in order TO
produce enmity between Russia and
Germany. He so far convinced the
Car, that at the banquet given in the
